Access Statement for Queen Street Mill Textile Museum Access Statement for Queen Street Mill Textile Museum Access Statement for Queen Street Mill Textile Museum This access statement does not contain personal opinions as to our suitability for those with access needs, but aims to accurately describe the facilities and services that we offer all our visitors. Introduction The worlds only surviving 19th century steam powered weaving mill. Bringing steam powered weaving to life. On the outskirts of Burnley - a town once dominated by the textile industry, lies Harle Syke, the home of Queen Street Mill, the last surviving, operational steam powered weaving mill in the world. Harle Syke is a small village and the museum is located in a residential area. The approach and area around the museum is flat, however the surface is flagged and uneven. You should allow yourself at least 1.5 hours to go around the museum, 5this will be an escorted tour with members of staff with the opportunity to visit the engine and hear a talk. The Engine House Due to some strengthening work on the mill chimney there will be limited access to some areas of the museum as some of the site is cordoned off for health and safety reasons. Visiting the engine will require visitors going back outside to the street and then into the engine house and up some steps. There is currently no lift access from inside the building whilst the chimney work is ongoing. Unfortunately this also means that we will currently be unable to light the boilers and operate the steam engine, however, you will be able to visit the boiler house and engine house to hear a talk about the engine workings. Staff are on hand throughout the museum should you require any assistance. We look forward to welcoming you.

  • Heritage Statement
    Heritage Statement Location Chimney at Queen Street Mill Museum, Briercliffe, Burnley. BB10 2HX Queen Street Mill Queen Street Mill is a steam‐powered weaving shed located in the mill village of Harle Syke above the town of Burnley, Lancashire and was built around 1894. Today, with its sister museum at Helmshore, Haslingden it forms part of the Museum of Lancashire Textiles Industry. The Mill is quite unique as it still contains its own working steam engine which powers original looms by intact drive systems. The mill was built and run by a village co‐operative and continued to operate until 1982. Recognised for its historic importance the site was bought by Burnley Borough Council, and when faced with later financial uncertainty taken over by Lancashire County Council in 1997. Set beside its mill lodge on the edge of open countryside the complex typifies the Lancashire Cotton Industry of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The site contains a Scheduled Ancient Monument, Queen Street Mill Engine, which is currently being rescheduled under English Heritage’s revision of the National Heritage List, List ID 1005085. The scheduled site consists of the engine and its house and boiler house and the flue and chimney. The buildings are listed, Grade 1. The site is within the Harle Syke Conservation Area. Listing Grade 1 List Entry Number: 1416482 Date First Listed: 23 Dec 2013 Chimney The Grade 1 listed chimney at Burnley Queen Street Mill Museum is circular in plan, constructed from red brickwork and is thirty five metres tall, four metres diameter at its base and tapers to just over two metres at the top.

    1 99-31 Lancashire Constabulary Pennine Division Community Support Department Sergeant J. Masterman Constable N. Lund Tel 01282 472247 Police Station, Parker Lane, Burnley, Lancs BBI 1 2BT PROBLEM ORIENTED POLICING COMPETITION THE TILLEY AWARD 1999 THE BURNLEY YOUTH SHELTER - A PURPOSE BUILT STREET CORNER ABSTRACT Harle Syke is an area of Burnley, which adjoins the rural parish of Briercliffe. Both areas consist of good class housing and enjoy a village atmosphere. This part of Burnley is about 2 miles away from the town centre and the recreational amenities for young people, which such an area provides. In Briercliffe, children up to the age of 12 have been provided with a play area containing swings, climbing frames etc, however the park is subject to a local bye law which legally excludes older children from entering or using it. There were no facilities available for the older children to use, which resulted in them congregating in places where they caused nuisance and offence to residents. 13 of the young people were arrested on one evening for causing a public nuisance after many complaints were made to the local beat officer over a period of time.. The result of neglecting the 12 to 18 year age groups has been felt not only in Burnley but in many other parts of the country as well. It has been established that 20% of police time is spent in dealngi with repeat nuisance which mainly originate from this older age group. Complaints of anti-social and criminal behaviour abound, such as gathering in large intimidating groups in residential areas, making noise, drinking alcohol, swearing and causing damage.

  • Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’S Cotton Frontier C.1890-1950
    Cotton and the Community: Exploring Changing Concepts of Identity and Community on Lancashire’s Cotton Frontier c.1890-1950 By Jack Southern A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the requirements for the degree of a PhD, at the University of Central Lancashire April 2016 1 i University of Central Lancashire STUDENT DECLARATION FORM I declare that whilst being registered as a candidate of the research degree, I have not been a registered candidate or enrolled student for another aware of the University or other academic or professional institution. I declare that no material contained in this thesis has been used for any other submission for an academic award and is solely my own work. Signature of Candidate ________________________________________________ Type of Award: Doctor of Philosophy School: Education and Social Sciences ii ABSTRACT This thesis explores the evolution of identity and community within north east Lancashire during a period when the area gained regional and national prominence through its involvement in the cotton industry. It examines how the overarching shared culture of the area could evolve under altering economic conditions, and how expressions of identity fluctuated through the cotton industry’s peak and decline. In effect, it explores how local populations could shape and be shaped by the cotton industry. By focusing on a compact area with diverse settlements, this thesis contributes to the wider understanding of what it was to live in an area dominated by a single industry. The complex legacy that the cotton industry’s decline has had is explored through a range of settlement types, from large town to small village.

Background: As a Lead Local Flood Authority, Lancashire County Council has a role in coordinating flood risk activities and ensuring the free flow of communication and collaborative works. In order to help achieve this, Lancashire County Council and relevant risk management authorities meet regularly to discuss local flooding issues and to identify opportunities for managing future flood risks. This has worked very well up to now and has allowed risk management authorities to work closely together to tackle often complex and challenging situations. However following the significant flooding that hit Lancashire in December 2015, it became evident that improvements could be made to the way in which these messages get communicated to affected communities. As such, Lancashire County Council has now developed a series of district level reports which aim to provide affected communities with information about what relevant risk management authorities are doing in their areas to help manage the risk of flooding from a variety of sources.
